Question

MELBOURNE, Australia – A kangaroo frightened by a man walking his dog attacked the pair, throwing the pet underwater and hitting the owner in the stomach with its back legs. The Australian, Chris Rickard, was in stable condition Monday after the attack, which ended when the 49-year-old struck the kangaroo in the throat.
Rickard said he was walking his blue dog, Rocky, on Sunday morning when they surprised a sleeping kangaroo in Arthur's Creek northeast of Melbourne. The dog chased the animal into a pond, when the kangaroo turned and knocked the pet underwater.
When Rickard tried to pull his dog free, the kangaroo turned on him, attacking with its back legs and tearing a deep cut into his stomach and across his face.
"I thought I might take action to drag the dog out from under his grasp, but I didn't expect him to actually attack me," Rickard, 49, told The Herald Sun newspaper. "It was a shock at the start because it was a kangaroo, about 5 feet high, they don't go around killing people."
"I was stuck having to hold on to the dog with both hands because it was half drowned and I couldn't really see anything because the kangaroo just attacked me.”
He added, "All I could do was just keep pushing for the bank and he was trying to push me under the water, so at that point I struck him in the throat and that made him back off a little bit.
"I don't think I'll ever be able to watch kangaroo programs quite the same as I used to — it might bring back a couple of bad memories.”
Kangaroos rarely attack people but will fight if they feel threatened.
Dogs often chase kangaroos, which have been known to lead the pets into water and defend themselves there.
Rickard said he ended the attack by hitting the kangaroo in the throat adding Rocky was "half-drowned" when he pulled him from the water

试题分析：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了一只袋鼠袭击人和狗的故事。
1.B考查细节理解。根据文章第一段中的A kangaroo frightened by a man walking his dog attacked the pair, throwing the pet underwater and hitting the owner in the stomach with its back legs.可知，当一个人遛狗的时候，他和他的狗被袋鼠袭击了。故选B。
2.C考查推理判断。根据文章中的It was a shock at the start because it was a kangaroo, about 5 feet high, they don't go around killing people."和Kangaroos rarely attack people but will fight if they feel threatened.可以推知，袋鼠不伤人除非它感觉受到了威胁。所以，袋鼠和人能和平相处。故选C。
3.B考查推理判断。根据文章第二段中的The dog chased the animal into a pond, when the kangaroo turned and knocked the pet underwater.可知，狗追赶袋鼠进入池塘，袋鼠转身将宠物狗撞入水下，人想从水中救狗，结果，袋鼠袭击了人和狗。故选B。
4.D考查推理判断。根据文章中倒数第四段中的"I don't think I'll ever be able to watch kangaroo programs quite the same as I used to — it might bring back a couple of bad memories.”可知，“我”被吓坏，不愿意再看袋鼠的节目，所以选D。这个事件给“我”留下了很深的印象。其他三项与文章内容不符。
